[Resolved] I can not translate the jet smart filters custom fields built with Jet Engine

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your patience!

It seems that we need to apply a couple of workarounds in order to solve this issue. Please try the following:

1. Go to WPML > Settings > Custom Fields and set the custom field (portable-detector-gas-type) to "Translate".

2. You need to apply this workaround as the custom fields values are not being copied for the translated product and we need to manually set them:

- Go to WPML > String Translator and translate the strings from the "Jet Engine Admin Labels" to the other languages (Spanish and German)
- Edit the original product, do a small modification and save it
- Translate the product (or update the translation) using a translation editor
- Edit the translated product using the manual editor by editing the original product then switching the language from the top admin bar. Note that the checkbox strings are correctly translated on back-end (hidden link)
- Check the translated checkboxes and save
- The strings will be translated on front-end now

3. Finally, open wp-content\plugins\jet-smart-filters\templates\filters\radio.php file and add the add the following snippet at line 46, after the foreach:

//WPML Workaround
        if (class_exists('SitePress')) {
            $label = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $label, 'Jet Engine Admin Labels', 'Admin Label - '.$label );
            $value = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $value, 'Jet Engine Admin Labels', 'Admin Label - '.$value);
        }
        //End of Workaround

I tested this on the sandbox site with one of the products and the fields are translated also the filter works now.

Let me know please if that helps.

Regards,
Mohamed
